CONCLUDED PBOM YESTERDAY. FIFTII RE-VALUATION. The Legislature of 1840-50 the lust Lccisla, ture under the Constitution of 1802, revised the revenue evstein of the Slum, nnd nuthorized n Suite Hoard of Equalization in almost exactly tlie terms of the law of 1810, excepting tlmt it nuthorized the Uovernor to appoint the members. It required the re-valuation to be mnde in 1853, and every sixth year thereafter. Before that year bud come, I lie people of Ohio had Adopted a new Jonaiituiion. lo the brst Ucneral As semhly tinder that Constitution, Governor Reu- 1 , -- T F.l. ...r. oen oou biiiii, January oih, ioiz: "The general system of luxation revised at the Inst session will not take effect until Docem-ber 1851. It is supposed to be repealed by I he adoption of the Constitution which only contin ues in force, such laws as were in operation on the first Monday of September last. The entire subject will cull your attention and I refer you to the able report ol Hie Auditor. me Aiiuitur oi oiaie m us reierrea to was John Woods. In his annual Report for 1851 he sum. "The act for the assessment of all property in tins slate, and tor levytug tuxes thereon accord ing to us true value, passed 25th March 1851, provided thai it should lake effect and be in force from the first day of December, 1852. The Consul ut ion declares lhat "all laws of the Stale in force on the first day of September, 1851, not inconsistent wilh this Constitution, shall con tinue in force until amended or repealed. The Act of March 25th, 1851, not being in force on the hr8t of September, could not take eSect after wards, consequently, the "Act for levying taxes on all properly in this Slate according to its true vulue,'1 passed 2nd March, 18-10, and the soveral acls amendatory of that law, are still in force so far as they are nut inconsistent with any Constitutional provision On motion of J. W. Wilson, of Seneca county the portions oi tne uovcruor s .Message pertain ing to the revenuo were referred to the commit tee of Finance in the Senate, which consisted of J. W. Wilson, Aaron l'ardee, of Medina and Lorain, ltobl, J. Atkinson, of Carroll and Stark, Lublin S. Sherman, of Ashtabula, Lnke and Cleaugn, and John S. Williams, of Logan, Union, Hardin and Marion. On the 22d of January, 1852, Robt. J. Atkinson, from that cotnmitlee, reported Senate bill 17, '!.'or.the nssessment of all property and the levying of all taxes therein according to the true vuluo in money." It underwent various mutations, both iu the Senate and in the House, between that day and the 13th of April, when it become a luw. It provided a Stale Board of Equalization, consisting of one member from each Senatorial District, (excepting Hamilton, which was allowed three members, I to be elected by the people at the ensuing Odobor election, all the members being required to possess the qualifications of electors. They were aulhorized lo meet nt Columbus ou the 1st Monday of November, 1853. The Auditor of Slate, by virtue of his office, was declared a member. In case of vacancies, the Governor was authorized lo fill them. Kach member was required lo take an oiilh that he would according to the best of his ability equalize the property of the Stale in accordance with the law utider which he held office. Returns were provided for from a Board consisting of tho County Auditor, surveyor, Commissioners and District Assessors. The aggregate value of the rent property, as returned lrom this Board, was not to be increased by the State Board more than $10,01)0,000. Each member of the Slate Board was lo be paid $3 for each day he attended the sessions of the Board, and $3 for every Iwenly-five miles necessarily traveled to and lrom the Capital. At the general election, on the llih day of October, looj, tlie lollowing named gentlemen wore chosen tor the btnte Board of Knualiza tion, required by the law of the Mill of Aoril previous; (Israel Brown, !

William D. .(organ Auditor of State, j On the 7th day of November, 1853, a majority ; of these gentlemen, met in the Odean building, ' Columlius and organised the tifih btnte Board of Equalization for Ohio, by appointing George House, temporary chairman and W. D. Morgan, Secretary protein. The oath of office was the administered by William Field, a justice of the pence for the city of Columbus. Un motion of Mr. Brown, James B. King, was unanimously chosen President of tho Board. On motion of Mr. Wilson, William D. Morgan, was chosen permanent Secretary. Un motion of Mr. Coulter, James Ctilbertson, r. of Perry, was chosen Sergeant-at-arms. Ihe lollowing day on motion of the Secretary, Joseph Dowdall, of Franklin county, was se lected as Assistant Clerk. On motion of Mr. Payne, it was resolved that the Sergeant-at Arms be authorized to employ one messenger boy, to attend on the sessions of this Board. Ktchard Riordnnjr., was accordingly appointed. Mr. Walters offered the following: Retolvid, That tho Sergeant-at-Armsbe allow ed an assistant Sergeant-at-Arms, and that he procure the following articles for the use of this Board, viz: One coal bucket, one large shovel, one small shovel for stoves, two counter-brushes, two pitchers, half dozen tumblers, three dozen sand-boxes, two cans black Band, half dozen hot l les good ink, one box wafers, one ream paper for wrapping, &c, three dozen wafer-stamps, one small box candles, half dozen candlesticks. On motion of Mr. Burke, the resolutiou was referred to a committee, consisting of Burko, Walters and Coulter. On the 9th, Mr. Burke reported that the com mittee had agreed to strike out that portion of the resolution appointing an assistant sergeant at Arms, nnd recommended that Ihe resolution us thus amended be adopted, which reccotumen-dntion was accepted. Kules for the government of the Board recom mended by a committee composed of Mr. Coulter, Mr. Brown, nnd Mr. Payne, were adopted, and then the business of equalization was regularly begun. On Ihe loth of December, Mr. Burke offered the following resolution, which was adopted: 1 hat the net gums acquired on the equalization of the lands and the towns of the Slate be distributed pro rain on the valuation of the real properly of Ihe State, not including cities whose population was 5,000 in 1850, Mr. Wallers moved lhat the ten millions au thorized by law lo lio reduced from ihe aggre gate valuation returned, be distributed between the several counties, towns and cities of the Slate according to their relative value. Mr. Kunkle moved to lav tlie resolution on the table, which was disagreed to. Tho question then being on the adoption of the resolution, it was agreed to. Two days afterwards, on motion of Mr. Mo. Clure, Mr. Runkle, Mr. Kellcy, Mr. Walters, Mr. Cramer, and Mr. nilbor were constituted a committee to equalize the cities of the Stale. On the 10th of December, Mr. Payne moved lhat a committee of three be appointed to examine the calculations of the several per cents, to be added to or deducted from, the several counties, in conformity with the amendments and orders of the Board; which was adopted, when the I resident appointed Payne, House and Bacon. On motion of Mr. House, the Auditor of Stnte was added to the committee. The committee appointed to examine the valu ation of the cities whose population was 6,000 in lnoll, reported through Mr. Wntterg on the 20tn of December, that all of said cities wero re turned at a very nigh appraisement, as well as the counties and towns, and recommended that two per cent, be deducted from Ihe valuation of Chillicothe, Cleveland and Cincinnati, by applying the fund heretofore assigned to cities, and that Columbus, Dayton, Steuhenville, Springfield and Zanesville, remain at their returned appraisement. Cincinnati .r,(!,'2To,4"n 2 per cent.

The next day Mr. Haines, Mr Kunkle Mr. Brown, Mr. Anderson, and Mr. Bacon, protested against the decision of the Board that the net gains accruing on the equalization of tlie lands aud the towns of the Slate, be distributed pro rata on the valuation of the real proporty, not including cities whose population was five thousand in the year 1850, because in their opinion it operates unjustly and unequally upon dif ferent portions ot the real property ol the slate; and was in violation of tho rules prescribed by law for the regulation of tho Board, in equalizing the valuation of real property among Ihe several counties and towns, was in conflict with the spirit and letter of the Constitution of the slate requiring "taxes lo bo imposed by a um form rule," and established n distinction between parcels of the real property, and especially be tweon towns not recognized by the law under which this Board was convened. It a was depar ture from (he design nf Ihe law for there-valuation of real properly for Ihe purpose of equal izing Ihe puhlio burthens, according to a uni form standard, to wil: "the true value in money." And it destroyed tho equalization of the valuation of real property, as made by the Board, af ter a niaturo and deliberate consideration of weeks. It increased the taxes of towns which by a solemn vote of t his Board had been declared "returned at a very high appraisement." Aud il imposed taxes by nn arbitrary rule (not recog nized by the law) which, if extended thereafter, might lend to oppressive and dangerous conse quenccs. On motion of Mr. Watters, Deo. 23d, the Audi tor of State was authorized to cause to be print ed, the proceedings of all tho Boards of Equali zation which had been convened in Ohio. A volume was in due time issued under the supervision of Mr. Morgan, to which we have been indebted for the facts nnd statistics, given in this sketch, which pertain lo Ihe proceedings of the different Boards. Mr, Wilbor, from Ihe committee to examine the calculations of the Secrotnry, made a report, which was accepted, on the 23d of December, nnd then the Board adjourned without day.

The Sixth Board of Equalization is now in session in the Senate Chamber. A list of its members, and a record of the proceedings which it has had, have already been p iblisLed in the columns of this paper. A Prisoner' Account of the Moors. A book hns recently been published in Spain, written by a man who had been releasod from imprisonment in Riff. We have selected and translated below a few passages, showing some peculiarities of the country and its inhabitants. As lhat is one of the portions of the Morocco coast likely to become speedily a scene of the Spanish Invasion, the following particulars will be read with Utcrest: Melilla is one of the smaller Spanish fortresses on the coast, and, like Ceula, has been insulted by the neighboring Moors, to whom the sight of foreign oocupants of their soil is naturally as obnoxious as the English fortress of Gihrnllerto the Spaniards. Benisidel is a tract of fertile nnd level country near Melilla, indeed reaching up to its rery walls. It covers about two square leagues and contains a large population for Morocco. It forms one of the five Kabilas, or districts composing the terrilory of Kakya. Benisidel is crossed by a small stream from east to west; and it is almost entirely covered wilh olive, pomegranate, nnd algob trees, fields of wheat and barley, gardens of vegetables, principally beans, turn-tp, and carrots. There are some flocks of sheep nnd herds of entile. The land is level, and overlooked on the south by a lofty and wild mountain, and on the east by another called Guruga, on whose southern slope are the ruins of a fortress.In the center of Kabila stands the residence of the chief K a bo, or Muscndem, (the Governor,) surrounded by a group of cottages. The rest of tho country is sprinkled by the habitations of the people, which are built of wood or atona and mortar, and placed without any regard to plnn or order. The population is about 6,000, who nre governed by ten rulers one for each division of the territory, and all subject to the chief Kabo or Muscndem, just mentioned. This superior officer is chosen for life, by the people; and the office has seldom been hereditary. His guard is composed of a few soldiers furnished by each of the divisions. The army is filled by volunteers, who enlist without obligations, and aro supported by supplies of food furnished by their own districts, but are wholly at the command of the chief Muscadem. They have no uniform, and are armed according to the preference or ability of each soldier, with a dagger, a gun, or a sword as it happens. They have neither organization nor discipline, and are nothing more than a horde of savages. There is a very low and imperfeot kind of education, in schools, established in all the divis-sions, in which nothing is taught but reading nnd writing. The Arabic laneuaee is unknown among the people, excepting such as have been at school, as the dialect of the country is very unlike it. The people are all Mahomedans, and there are from eight to twelve mosques for worship in every division, each under the ears of its priest. These buildings serve also as sohool houses and asylums for poor travelers. The Moors are hos-pilable to an extreme, and these retreats for the needy and strangers are kept open, and their wants are supplied by th people, ta whom the priests appeal for alms, making known the necessities of those whom they receive from day to day. A weekly fair or market day is held in each Division, or Kabila, where the various productions are brought for sale fruits, vegetables, garments, &c. They frequently afford oocasions of ihe greatestcrimes, as they collect people from different places, and those guilty of any offense at such tinios ar not held responsible by publie authority. Individuals and families, therefore, lake justice, or vengeance, into their own hands, nnd bloody scenes are too often the result-Things are sometimes carried so fur, that fights take place between the people of different villages or districts, and the market-place is converted into a field of battle; the articles of merchandise are heaped up to form barricades, or forts, and a contest is carried on, it may be, for several days. When things go on peaceable, however, the chief men meet at Ihe fairs, and communicate and discuss the news, particularly of late what relates to the "Christian Camp," or Spanish fortresses. They then send out criers, who proclaim, viva voce, such reports as they think fit to make for the information of the people. For amusements, the men divert themselves only with the discharge of firearms, while th woman are fond of music, nnd play on timbrels, of native manufacture. There is a want of fountains nnd springs; and water is derived only from cisterns, in which rain is eollected, and from the little river. The superstitions of the pen pi o nre innumerable. The Moors of that region believe women to be very far inferior to men, and scarcely fit lo enter paradise, but yet do not employ them in the severe labors of the field. Even in lhat dark and semi-savage region, thoreforo, the sight is not beheld, which so often meets Ihe eyes of a traveler in France, Germany, and some of her "refined counlriea" of Europe, of females performing the .most"1 fatiguing labors of agriculture, -Jjogg are cherished in Riff, to an extravagant extent, at once inconvenient, expensive, and dangerous. Indeed many deaths are occasioned by them in the course of a year. But the multiplicity of wives is a still greater curse; polygamy being general, and all ilg evil consequences prevailing in society. Pay of French Journalist. Writing for the Paris Press would seem to be a fairly retributed profession. Employment on the various daily journals is eagerly sought, and those who succeed in attaching themselves to the various editorial staffs, have no reason to complain. The correspondent of the Debate, du- . ring the recent Italian war, M. Amedee Achard, received $50 a letter, aud all his expenses paid. Texier, the war correspondent of the Sieele, was paid $40 a letter, was decorated with the Legion of Honor by the Emperor Napoleon, and has recently received another decoration from King Victor Emmanuel. But, though writers are promised good salaries, they sometimes experience difficulty in getting their money. When Ihe Courrier de Parit was started, about two years ago, M. de Sauley, a distinguished member of the French Institute, was employed to contribute, weekly, a soientifio arliole, for which he was to be paid five hundred francs a month. The paper was soon sold, and the new proprietors, considering M. de Sauley too dear, employed Dr. lleinvilliera in his place. The Utter wrote six months, and was, in his turn, displaced by another scientific: editor, who wrote "for the fun of it" whioh means gratuitously. Before leaving the office, Dr. Reinvilliera asked for his six months' salary, on the same fooling as his predecessor, t. e. 500 francs a months, or 3,000 francs for half a year. Ho wns'lold thai asimpledoclorhad no right lode-mand tiie payof a member of the Institute, and the publishers nf Ihe Courrier offered him 200 francs a month. The doctor refused, and brought suit. The tribunal of commerce allowed him 400 francs a month, condemning Ihe Courrier to pay a total of 2,400 francs. Both parties appealed; Dr. Reinvilliers found Ihe sum too small, and th Courrier found it too large. The last and irrevocable deoislon fixes the amount of tlie Courrier' indebtedness to the soientifio doctor at 1,800 francs. The last tiovelty in France is the fashion of ladies wearing a glass stuck in their eye. In the ooitnlry they wear the same hat as th cavalier, wear dig-akin gloves, heavy paletots with oapaoious pockets, and the most fasoinaling gaiters of rough leather, with ever so many little buttons and bell-likt appendagss, which ii eaiien f M iniwtig i

CONCLUDED PBOM YESTERDAY. FIFTII RE-VALUATION. The Legislature of 1840-50 the lust Lccisla, ture under the Constitution of 1802, revised the revenue evstein of the Slum, nnd nuthorized n Suite Hoard of Equalization in almost exactly tlie terms of the law of 1810, excepting tlmt it nuthorized the Uovernor to appoint the members. It required the re-valuation to be mnde in 1853, and every sixth year thereafter. Before that year bud come, I lie people of Ohio had Adopted a new Jonaiituiion. lo the brst Ucneral As semhly tinder that Constitution, Governor Reu- 1 , -- T F.l. ...r. oen oou biiiii, January oih, ioiz: "The general system of luxation revised at the Inst session will not take effect until Docem-ber 1851. It is supposed to be repealed by I he adoption of the Constitution which only contin ues in force, such laws as were in operation on the first Monday of September last. The entire subject will cull your attention and I refer you to the able report ol Hie Auditor. me Aiiuitur oi oiaie m us reierrea to was John Woods. In his annual Report for 1851 he sum. "The act for the assessment of all property in tins slate, and tor levytug tuxes thereon accord ing to us true value, passed 25th March 1851, provided thai it should lake effect and be in force from the first day of December, 1852. The Consul ut ion declares lhat "all laws of the Stale in force on the first day of September, 1851, not inconsistent wilh this Constitution, shall con tinue in force until amended or repealed. The Act of March 25th, 1851, not being in force on the hr8t of September, could not take eSect after wards, consequently, the "Act for levying taxes on all properly in this Slate according to its true vulue,'1 passed 2nd March, 18-10, and the soveral acls amendatory of that law, are still in force so far as they are nut inconsistent with any Constitutional provision On motion of J. W. Wilson, of Seneca county the portions oi tne uovcruor s .Message pertain ing to the revenuo were referred to the commit tee of Finance in the Senate, which consisted of J. W. Wilson, Aaron l'ardee, of Medina and Lorain, ltobl, J. Atkinson, of Carroll and Stark, Lublin S. Sherman, of Ashtabula, Lnke and Cleaugn, and John S. Williams, of Logan, Union, Hardin and Marion. On the 22d of January, 1852, Robt. J. Atkinson, from that cotnmitlee, reported Senate bill 17, '!.'or.the nssessment of all property and the levying of all taxes therein according to the true vuluo in money." It underwent various mutations, both iu the Senate and in the House, between that day and the 13th of April, when it become a luw. It provided a Stale Board of Equalization, consisting of one member from each Senatorial District, (excepting Hamilton, which was allowed three members, I to be elected by the people at the ensuing Odobor election, all the members being required to possess the qualifications of electors. They were aulhorized lo meet nt Columbus ou the 1st Monday of November, 1853. The Auditor of Slate, by virtue of his office, was declared a member. In case of vacancies, the Governor was authorized lo fill them. Kach member was required lo take an oiilh that he would according to the best of his ability equalize the property of the Stale in accordance with the law utider which he held office. Returns were provided for from a Board consisting of tho County Auditor, surveyor, Commissioners and District Assessors. The aggregate value of the rent property, as returned lrom this Board, was not to be increased by the State Board more than $10,01)0,000. Each member of the Slate Board was lo be paid $3 for each day he attended the sessions of the Board, and $3 for every Iwenly-five miles necessarily traveled to and lrom the Capital. At the general election, on the llih day of October, looj, tlie lollowing named gentlemen wore chosen tor the btnte Board of Knualiza tion, required by the law of the Mill of Aoril previous; (Israel Brown, !

William D. .(organ Auditor of State, j On the 7th day of November, 1853, a majority ; of these gentlemen, met in the Odean building, ' Columlius and organised the tifih btnte Board of Equalization for Ohio, by appointing George House, temporary chairman and W. D. Morgan, Secretary protein. The oath of office was the administered by William Field, a justice of the pence for the city of Columbus. Un motion of Mr. Brown, James B. King, was unanimously chosen President of tho Board. On motion of Mr. Wilson, William D. Morgan, was chosen permanent Secretary. Un motion of Mr. Coulter, James Ctilbertson, r. of Perry, was chosen Sergeant-at-arms. Ihe lollowing day on motion of the Secretary, Joseph Dowdall, of Franklin county, was se lected as Assistant Clerk. On motion of Mr. Payne, it was resolved that the Sergeant-at Arms be authorized to employ one messenger boy, to attend on the sessions of this Board. Ktchard Riordnnjr., was accordingly appointed. Mr. Walters offered the following: Retolvid, That tho Sergeant-at-Armsbe allow ed an assistant Sergeant-at-Arms, and that he procure the following articles for the use of this Board, viz: One coal bucket, one large shovel, one small shovel for stoves, two counter-brushes, two pitchers, half dozen tumblers, three dozen sand-boxes, two cans black Band, half dozen hot l les good ink, one box wafers, one ream paper for wrapping, &c, three dozen wafer-stamps, one small box candles, half dozen candlesticks. On motion of Mr. Burke, the resolutiou was referred to a committee, consisting of Burko, Walters and Coulter. On the 9th, Mr. Burke reported that the com mittee had agreed to strike out that portion of the resolution appointing an assistant sergeant at Arms, nnd recommended that Ihe resolution us thus amended be adopted, which reccotumen-dntion was accepted. Kules for the government of the Board recom mended by a committee composed of Mr. Coulter, Mr. Brown, nnd Mr. Payne, were adopted, and then the business of equalization was regularly begun. On Ihe loth of December, Mr. Burke offered the following resolution, which was adopted: 1 hat the net gums acquired on the equalization of the lands and the towns of the Slate be distributed pro rain on the valuation of the real properly of Ihe State, not including cities whose population was 5,000 in 1850, Mr. Wallers moved lhat the ten millions au thorized by law lo lio reduced from ihe aggre gate valuation returned, be distributed between the several counties, towns and cities of the Slate according to their relative value. Mr. Kunkle moved to lav tlie resolution on the table, which was disagreed to. Tho question then being on the adoption of the resolution, it was agreed to. Two days afterwards, on motion of Mr. Mo. Clure, Mr. Runkle, Mr. Kellcy, Mr. Walters, Mr. Cramer, and Mr. nilbor were constituted a committee to equalize the cities of the Stale. On the 10th of December, Mr. Payne moved lhat a committee of three be appointed to examine the calculations of the several per cents, to be added to or deducted from, the several counties, in conformity with the amendments and orders of the Board; which was adopted, when the I resident appointed Payne, House and Bacon. On motion of Mr. House, the Auditor of Stnte was added to the committee. The committee appointed to examine the valu ation of the cities whose population was 6,000 in lnoll, reported through Mr. Wntterg on the 20tn of December, that all of said cities wero re turned at a very nigh appraisement, as well as the counties and towns, and recommended that two per cent, be deducted from Ihe valuation of Chillicothe, Cleveland and Cincinnati, by applying the fund heretofore assigned to cities, and that Columbus, Dayton, Steuhenville, Springfield and Zanesville, remain at their returned appraisement. Cincinnati .r,(!,'2To,4"n 2 per cent.

The next day Mr. Haines, Mr Kunkle Mr. Brown, Mr. Anderson, and Mr. Bacon, protested against the decision of the Board that the net gains accruing on the equalization of tlie lands aud the towns of the Slate, be distributed pro rata on the valuation of the real proporty, not including cities whose population was five thousand in the year 1850, because in their opinion it operates unjustly and unequally upon dif ferent portions ot the real property ol the slate; and was in violation of tho rules prescribed by law for the regulation of tho Board, in equalizing the valuation of real property among Ihe several counties and towns, was in conflict with the spirit and letter of the Constitution of the slate requiring "taxes lo bo imposed by a um form rule," and established n distinction between parcels of the real property, and especially be tweon towns not recognized by the law under which this Board was convened. It a was depar ture from (he design nf Ihe law for there-valuation of real properly for Ihe purpose of equal izing Ihe puhlio burthens, according to a uni form standard, to wil: "the true value in money." And it destroyed tho equalization of the valuation of real property, as made by the Board, af ter a niaturo and deliberate consideration of weeks. It increased the taxes of towns which by a solemn vote of t his Board had been declared "returned at a very high appraisement." Aud il imposed taxes by nn arbitrary rule (not recog nized by the law) which, if extended thereafter, might lend to oppressive and dangerous conse quenccs. On motion of Mr. Watters, Deo. 23d, the Audi tor of State was authorized to cause to be print ed, the proceedings of all tho Boards of Equali zation which had been convened in Ohio. A volume was in due time issued under the supervision of Mr. Morgan, to which we have been indebted for the facts nnd statistics, given in this sketch, which pertain lo Ihe proceedings of the different Boards. Mr, Wilbor, from Ihe committee to examine the calculations of the Secrotnry, made a report, which was accepted, on the 23d of December, nnd then the Board adjourned without day.

The Sixth Board of Equalization is now in session in the Senate Chamber. A list of its members, and a record of the proceedings which it has had, have already been p iblisLed in the columns of this paper. A Prisoner' Account of the Moors. A book hns recently been published in Spain, written by a man who had been releasod from imprisonment in Riff. We have selected and translated below a few passages, showing some peculiarities of the country and its inhabitants. As lhat is one of the portions of the Morocco coast likely to become speedily a scene of the Spanish Invasion, the following particulars will be read with Utcrest: Melilla is one of the smaller Spanish fortresses on the coast, and, like Ceula, has been insulted by the neighboring Moors, to whom the sight of foreign oocupants of their soil is naturally as obnoxious as the English fortress of Gihrnllerto the Spaniards. Benisidel is a tract of fertile nnd level country near Melilla, indeed reaching up to its rery walls. It covers about two square leagues and contains a large population for Morocco. It forms one of the five Kabilas, or districts composing the terrilory of Kakya. Benisidel is crossed by a small stream from east to west; and it is almost entirely covered wilh olive, pomegranate, nnd algob trees, fields of wheat and barley, gardens of vegetables, principally beans, turn-tp, and carrots. There are some flocks of sheep nnd herds of entile. The land is level, and overlooked on the south by a lofty and wild mountain, and on the east by another called Guruga, on whose southern slope are the ruins of a fortress.In the center of Kabila stands the residence of the chief K a bo, or Muscndem, (the Governor,) surrounded by a group of cottages. The rest of tho country is sprinkled by the habitations of the people, which are built of wood or atona and mortar, and placed without any regard to plnn or order. The population is about 6,000, who nre governed by ten rulers one for each division of the territory, and all subject to the chief Kabo or Muscndem, just mentioned. This superior officer is chosen for life, by the people; and the office has seldom been hereditary. His guard is composed of a few soldiers furnished by each of the divisions. The army is filled by volunteers, who enlist without obligations, and aro supported by supplies of food furnished by their own districts, but are wholly at the command of the chief Muscadem. They have no uniform, and are armed according to the preference or ability of each soldier, with a dagger, a gun, or a sword as it happens. They have neither organization nor discipline, and are nothing more than a horde of savages. There is a very low and imperfeot kind of education, in schools, established in all the divis-sions, in which nothing is taught but reading nnd writing. The Arabic laneuaee is unknown among the people, excepting such as have been at school, as the dialect of the country is very unlike it. The people are all Mahomedans, and there are from eight to twelve mosques for worship in every division, each under the ears of its priest. These buildings serve also as sohool houses and asylums for poor travelers. The Moors are hos-pilable to an extreme, and these retreats for the needy and strangers are kept open, and their wants are supplied by th people, ta whom the priests appeal for alms, making known the necessities of those whom they receive from day to day. A weekly fair or market day is held in each Division, or Kabila, where the various productions are brought for sale fruits, vegetables, garments, &c. They frequently afford oocasions of ihe greatestcrimes, as they collect people from different places, and those guilty of any offense at such tinios ar not held responsible by publie authority. Individuals and families, therefore, lake justice, or vengeance, into their own hands, nnd bloody scenes are too often the result-Things are sometimes carried so fur, that fights take place between the people of different villages or districts, and the market-place is converted into a field of battle; the articles of merchandise are heaped up to form barricades, or forts, and a contest is carried on, it may be, for several days. When things go on peaceable, however, the chief men meet at Ihe fairs, and communicate and discuss the news, particularly of late what relates to the "Christian Camp," or Spanish fortresses. They then send out criers, who proclaim, viva voce, such reports as they think fit to make for the information of the people. For amusements, the men divert themselves only with the discharge of firearms, while th woman are fond of music, nnd play on timbrels, of native manufacture. There is a want of fountains nnd springs; and water is derived only from cisterns, in which rain is eollected, and from the little river. The superstitions of the pen pi o nre innumerable. The Moors of that region believe women to be very far inferior to men, and scarcely fit lo enter paradise, but yet do not employ them in the severe labors of the field. Even in lhat dark and semi-savage region, thoreforo, the sight is not beheld, which so often meets Ihe eyes of a traveler in France, Germany, and some of her "refined counlriea" of Europe, of females performing the .most"1 fatiguing labors of agriculture, -Jjogg are cherished in Riff, to an extravagant extent, at once inconvenient, expensive, and dangerous. Indeed many deaths are occasioned by them in the course of a year. But the multiplicity of wives is a still greater curse; polygamy being general, and all ilg evil consequences prevailing in society. Pay of French Journalist. Writing for the Paris Press would seem to be a fairly retributed profession. Employment on the various daily journals is eagerly sought, and those who succeed in attaching themselves to the various editorial staffs, have no reason to complain. The correspondent of the Debate, du- . ring the recent Italian war, M. Amedee Achard, received $50 a letter, aud all his expenses paid. Texier, the war correspondent of the Sieele, was paid $40 a letter, was decorated with the Legion of Honor by the Emperor Napoleon, and has recently received another decoration from King Victor Emmanuel. But, though writers are promised good salaries, they sometimes experience difficulty in getting their money. When Ihe Courrier de Parit was started, about two years ago, M. de Sauley, a distinguished member of the French Institute, was employed to contribute, weekly, a soientifio arliole, for which he was to be paid five hundred francs a month. The paper was soon sold, and the new proprietors, considering M. de Sauley too dear, employed Dr. lleinvilliera in his place. The Utter wrote six months, and was, in his turn, displaced by another scientific: editor, who wrote "for the fun of it" whioh means gratuitously. Before leaving the office, Dr. Reinvilliera asked for his six months' salary, on the same fooling as his predecessor, t. e. 500 francs a months, or 3,000 francs for half a year. Ho wns'lold thai asimpledoclorhad no right lode-mand tiie payof a member of the Institute, and the publishers nf Ihe Courrier offered him 200 francs a month. The doctor refused, and brought suit. The tribunal of commerce allowed him 400 francs a month, condemning Ihe Courrier to pay a total of 2,400 francs. Both parties appealed; Dr. Reinvilliers found Ihe sum too small, and th Courrier found it too large. The last and irrevocable deoislon fixes the amount of tlie Courrier' indebtedness to the soientifio doctor at 1,800 francs. The last tiovelty in France is the fashion of ladies wearing a glass stuck in their eye. In the ooitnlry they wear the same hat as th cavalier, wear dig-akin gloves, heavy paletots with oapaoious pockets, and the most fasoinaling gaiters of rough leather, with ever so many little buttons and bell-likt appendagss, which ii eaiien f M iniwtig i
